Those are the parts i'm picking for my build. It will be a big step up from my current rig. I'm going for a silver/black/green color scheme. I was glad to fine a gtx 770 with the titan cooler on it. Hopefully all the parts I choose will work well together. Please post any suggestions on different parts for me to use.

Are you spending money just for looks or are you trying to get a good value out of your system?

A little more but worth it IMO http://pcpartpicker.com/p/1zoAQ

Would go with this build, but get different ram since that ram has red on it. Have you thought about bifenix alchemy extensions? I'm pretty sure also that you can't do push pull with a 240mm rad in the top.

I dont like the sleeving that bitfenix uses for their cables. And I wasnt planning on doing push/pull in the top. I got the extra SP120 fans for intake in the front.

Well you can take the red off because it is just a sticker

the SP120s aren't designed for case fans if you want good case fans I would suggest Be Quiet! silent wings 2.

If i peel off the sticker it voids the warranty, and I really like the looks of the dominator platinum. And that PSU would look really ugly in the case window, but how is the new Samsung EVO ssd. Is it as good as the Samsung Pro series? And is the 780 really worth it, or will the 770 pretty much max out all games. Also I need 16gb of ram for video editing.

Im going for looks, I know some of the stuff I could swap out for cheaper parts but I want everything to look nice.

Thanks for the feedback, but how is that SSD. I haven't seen much about it since its relatively new. And do you think that the gpu and 4670k (hopefully overclocked to 4.2-4.4GHz) will bottleneck the mobo.

The only problem i have with the Kraken x60 is the tubes are so long, they look weird and touch the back of the gpu and that could generate extra heat to the water. Thanks for the PSU suggestion, its a nice PSU and the sides have colors that will match my build. And with the fans, i dont want led fans cuz the colors on the fans are different shades of green. Its not the same green as the mobo and the geforce logo.

The water shouldn't have any problem even if it touched the back of the gpu. 

How about these fans?

Do they perform well?

I wanted to get some Scythe Gently Typhoons but they are so hard to find i just decided to go with corsair fans.

They're both good and quiet. They're for the case just to be clear.

Are the be quiet fans good for radiator fans too. And the front of the case isnt very opened and people that used the airflow fans in that case said they didnt move much air, so i choose the sp fans.

It won't bottleneck the mobo, and the 840 EVO is like the 840 Pro. Absolutely amazing. Samsung make great SSDs, some of the best out there.

They are okay as rad fans, but if you are looking for rad recommendations noiseblocker E-loops and come in white or a smoked black.

I'll probably get that SSD since its better the HyperX. But I still plan on getting the sniper m5 mobo for the color scheme. Thanks for recommending a different one though.

You're welcome :D

 

I am happy I was able to help. Definitely consider the Seidon 240M though, as it actually performs a bit better than the H100i and costs a bit less.

Where do they sell those fans. Ive check Newegg, and I didnt see them. 

Aquatuning sell them for a good price http://www.aquatuning.us/product_info.php/info/p16001_Phobya-NB-eLoop-1000rpm---Bionic-L-fter-Black-Edition---120x120x25mm--.html

It performs slightly better because of the really loud fans sadly.
